Add the App to multiple K2 servers

You can install the K2 app on multiple K2 servers when you have K2 installed on a distributed environment.

Follow these steps to add the K2 app to multiple K2 servers:

  • Before following the steps below, ensure the OAuth High Trust certificate is in sync across all your K2 servers. See KB001632 for information on how to achieve this
  • You must use the K2 app from your installation source when deploying to the app catalog to ensure that you're using the correct app version that corresponds to your K2 server version. In upgrade scenarios when you only have a single app catalog for your environments, see the SharePoint On-premises > Upgrade steps section of K2 for SharePoint App Registration and Activation
  1. Run the Registration Wizard on the secondary K2 server first.
  2. Open the app catalog site, click on the K2 app in the Site Contents page.
  3. Then in the App Catalog > K2 for SharePoint page, click the Manage App Activations link.
  4. On the Manage App Activations page, the Select K2 Server page opens. All registered K2 servers are listed here.
  5. Select the required K2 server.
  6. Double click on the K2 server to add it to the Manage App Activations page.
  7. Add the site collection and click the Activate button.
  8. The site collection is now activated with the selected K2 server.
